    Summary

    Even in the short amount of time it’s been since Amelia moved to the city, she’s heard all sorts of stories about them. The Peaky Blinders. More than half of the stories, she suspects, are wildly exaggerated and little more than idle gossip traded when people are well into their cups. Even so, she made a promise to herself to stay away from men who looked like trouble, especially after the last time, and if anyone in this dreary city was trouble, it was them.

    Esme is frustrated with John’s infidelity and subconsciously begins to punish him.
    Disclaimer: I absolutely love John Shelby, but he broke my heart every time that he cheated on Esme. I guess this is helping me work out my feelings about that. Don’t hate me.

    Summary

    Tommy finds himself at a crucial moment in his confrontation with Luca Changretta. Fear is present all the time and they know that the whole family is in danger. However, Frances cannot help but find herself terrified by the situation and more so by the idea of losing her husband.

    “Nothing is going to hurt you, Frances” - said Tommy as he held the girl’s face in his hands and stared at her, in an attempt to get her to pay attention. She took his hands and lowered them to hold them at his hips. Her lips trembled.

    “You don’t understand, do you?!” - She protested. “I am not afraid that something will happen to me. I’m scared for you. Of the idea of losing you and seeing you suffer“.

    Summary

    (Sci-fi AU, for a prompt) It's been a while since they last met, and now he's an admiral, she's a queen. They have only a short ride in his ship together, and there's little they can say, very little they can do. They dance.

    insurresine: the original variation of the borgues dance. Both partners put their right hand on their hip or keep their right hand free. It was invented by soldiers during the Twin Rebellions and used to seduce each other or just pass the time, knowing an attack could come at any second and they wanted their right hands free to grab a weapon if necessary.

    dua capo: two leaders; when the lead role in the dance switches from person to person at least once
